Our national directory of flower shops and florists make sending flowers to anyone across the street or across the country simple and easy to do.  All you need to do is to find a local flower shop and florist in the city or town you would like the flowers delivered to.  If no florist exists there, we will list flower shops and florists in other cities and towns that are near or close by.  Besides saving money by not having to pay middlemen's fees and charges when you order and buy direct from a local florist, you talk directly to the people who will actually make and deliver your order.  Because of this, you will know exactly what is available during the current season and you will know exactly what will be sent.

Locate-A-Flower-Shop.com® lists FTD and Teleflora flower shops and retail stores.  We can assist you in finding the florist shop that meets or exceeds your expectations.  If you want to send flowers, roses, plants, orchids, fruit baskets, gifts, candy, balloons or silk arrangements, local flower shops have the experience to help you make the proper flower selection.

Flowers convey unique thoughts and feelings words cannot.  From a wedding, anniversary or birthday gift to a loved one's memorial or funeral, local floral shops can help you say it with flowers.

Make sure to place your order as soon as possible from the florist to be sure of same day delivery.  If you prefer, you can enter your order online through the flower shop's Internet web site or if you are in need of help, use the toll free telephone number of the floral shop.  For those florist shops in Wiscasset, ME not having a toll free telephone number, a local telephone number with area code is listed.

Stock:
Common Names: Stock
Description: Stocks have single or double flowers with a 1-inch diameter and a pleasing clove-like scent. The romantic beauty of this flower brings texture to garden designs, and its sweet, spicy fragrance is an added attraction. Colors range from white, cream, yellow, peach, lavender, pink, purple and burgundy. Vase life is five to eight days.

Orchid:
Common Names: Orchid, Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Oncidium, Cattleya, Phalaenopsis
Description: Throughout the world, more than 17,000 species are known, and varieties vary in size and shape. Oncidium blossoms are 1 1/2 to 1 inch and are usually yellow with orange-red markings. Cattleya blossoms are large, ruffled and usually 5 to 6 inches across in white or purple with contrasting throats. Phalaenopsis have moth- or butterfly-shaped flowers in colors such as white, pink, purple and bicolors. Cymbidium and dendrobium flowers have a butterfly-like shape and are 3 to 4 inches acress. The larger of the two, cymbidiums are white, yellow, green or lavender with pink or red lips, while dendrobiums are often white or lavender.


Ordering Advice:
Floral designers are very creative individuals.  Rather than specifying the precise location of every flower in the arrangement, tell them the overall "look" you want (e.g., round arrangement, loose flowers in a vase, etc.) and let them use their creativity to do something spectacular for you!
While some florists will take an order to be delivered in the A.M. or P.M., it is usually impossible to have it delivered at a particular time of the day (i.e., 2:00 P.M.).  Because of traffic, pending funerals, weather and many other things, it very difficult to predict where the delivery van will be from one minute to the next.  If the delivery is for someone at a place of employment, give the florist the time the person will be there at work.
